It seems defining variables like `{libname}_AR` has no effect if {libname} is
defined as `LTLIBRARIES` target, libtool script just used AR set during
configuration. This method works only with `LIBRARIES` targets.
The best I could achieve with `LTLIBRARIES = libpthread.la` is to record
dependency on winpthreads.la in pthread.la.
I tried to experiment with libtool's --mode=execute hoping it would substitute
.la with a library filename, but --mode=execute works only with executables.

I think that, in this way we can declare libpthread.la in LTLIBRARIES; it will
be unnecessary to
have separate rules to copy the static library and shared library, since
libtool will run the same
command respectively.
